my team lost

and i don't mean the national cricket side (aka the slack craps) or the sevens team or the fast ferns (that's the 20/20 version of netball i think but i haven't managed to keep up with that...i'm hoping my netball fiend blogger friend will update me on that).

RIP (fuck off) goff. you did the best you could in the face of a smarmy slimy git who could work a crowd and a land full of ignorant morons and 'tards (apart from the intelligent 24% of you). i remember protesting against you in the early 90s...and i mean early, 1990. that was when you had the requisite 'stache and those big ass wire frames that were de rigeur at the time. you made the best of what you had. i forgave you so you must have done something ok.

i suggested, rather rashly in hindsight, that my friends and i stage a ritual burning of all things blue. but then i realised i'd have to burn my car. i quite like my car. it's a faux holden which i like and holden is red so i think my car is not in fact blue as it appears but red (and that's the truth).

so, in conclusion, thanks to all you morons and 'tards who have made it really hard for me to do my job, the one job i have wanted to do since i was 5. i seriously hope that the information i have been given is wrong. it hasn't ever been in the past but maybe this one time it may be.

i had a chat with my mate trev today

that's mr mallard to the rest of you plebs. it was mentioned that the current 8 week term has been horrific. he said to me that it was his fault. i said to him please do not do that again. to which he replied it will not happen again for a long time and why not? then i said because it's been a hard term. he said is that because it's been short? i said that's part of it. the children have been shits. i left him to ponder that.

it's been a while

since last time we won the rugby world cup. a nail-biter of a final that at times i couldn't watch.

end-of-termitis has well and truly set in, and that's just from me. some of the students are climbing the walls. thought i had another drug-bust today but the evidence had disappeared by the time i got to it. 4 weeks to go. it cannot go soon enough. i'm sick of telling people that this second half year has been long and tiring and having them say we had 11 week terms in the past. especially people who should know better and just keep dumping more and more paperwork on us.
